Question #07658

Answer 1

The polymers of nucleic acids are DNA and RNA.

Explanation:

A "polymer" is how we name a molecule that is made of many similar smaller units, interlinked and repeting themselves - the "monomers".

Regarding the nucleic acids, we have two major types: the DNA, or DeoxyriboNucleic Acid, and the RNA, or RiboNucleic Acid. These two differ in their monomers, or, as we call them, nucleotides, which are bounded to each other by hydrogen bonds.

The DNA and RNA nucleotide and bonding structures can be seen below:
